Mission Organization: Week 8 - My Bakeware

My Mission Organization project for this week was to organize my bakeware so that I could access it more easily. After all, I reach for these items every day, and having them handy just makes sense. My sister and my daughter both have those wonderful cabinets with built-ins that store baking sheets upright. I just love those, but my cabinets, unfortunately, did not have that feature until I gave them a makeover this week.

Here are a couple of my bakeware shelves after the makeover.

This is the way I was storing my bakeware in a lower cabinet. This is not a terrible arrangement, but not accessible either. I was spending my time standing on my head or down on my knees searching for the pan I needed.

I have a couple of these tall narrow pantries on either side of my refrigerator. I decided to try moving my bakeware into one of these.

I didn't even have anything too important in this one to move out.

I kept thinking of how to make my sheet pans and such stand up, so I bought two of these corner shelves.

I turned them sideways and pushed them to the back of the cabinet shelf.

Then I just slid all the sheet pans, muffin pans, and other bakeware into the slots, and it worked.

I am really happy with this new bakeware arrangement. I can see my pans now, and I don't have to stand on my head or crawl around the floor to find the one I want.
